Wrestlemania 21 FOR XBOX DONT BUY

i had a feeling it was gonna suck, rented it and i am SOO GLAD i didnt buy it, it was a huge title for wrestling fans but its quite obvious this is a 65% beta copy with lot of glitches, and ai problems, for example I can use the bigshow 2003 but I can also buy him from shopzone? wtf it makes no sense, I couldnt even get on live and I understand that alot of people who bought the game are have the same problem


my final review is 3/10 AVOID WRESTLING FANS

I quit watching wrestling a loooong time ago.
Just watch the 1st 5 wrestlemanias pretty much everything after that was crap.

I've been reading about this in the gamefaqs forum and everyone is going nuts. How could these big screw ups end up on the final release of the game? Didn't they properly do the QA before making thousands of copies of the game?

DELL its obvious they rushed the game its really sad man this could have been the king of wrestling games, i mean i couldnt even connect to live i would wager this game was only 65-70% done and was forced out, i havent been this dissapointed in a while i was really looking forward to playing this one online only positive i have was I RENTED it instead of wasting $70 on the game

too bad Day of Reckoning for the cube doesnt have online play, or Here comes the pain for ps2 (Smackdown vs Raw sucks)

simple answer is that they KNEW about problems but released it anyways.

so much for the myth that console games NEVER need any patches.

That's the problem with the X-Box; developers know that a lot of users have X-Box Live, and release craptacular products that they can patch later.

GameCube has jack for online; better get it right, or don't release it at all. None of my GC games have ever had major glitches...

It is beleived that THQ sent off the wrong gold master disc for reproduction. Theres going to be a recall for the game fairly shortly

And reason gameplay isnt as good is because thq dropped previous company making games and chose the maker of mortal kombat to handle it. Problem is it was their first wrestling game so it wasnt perfect. link below to read about it.

I remember this gaming being delayed from march 28th to april 20th because they had some AI issues....which still exist (according to IGN reviews). So that's gotta suck big time.

I'm also mad that somebody submitted a faulty torrent of this game!! (wasted 5 gigs of my limit cuz of uploads)
